Suppose we write: nav vIghajbe', ghItlhwI' vIghajbe' je I don't have a pen nor do I have a paper qovIjmey vIQejbe', ngavyaw'mey vIQejbe' je I don't like small canine-like creatures nor do I like big ones Is there a problem using {je} this way ? I'm asking because it's pretty tempting to translate these sentences as: nav vIghajbe', ghItlhwI' vIghajbe' je I don't have a paper, I don't have a pen too qovIjmey vIQejbe', ngavyaw'mey vIQejbe' je I don't love small canine-like creatures, I don't like big ones too The last two fse translations "sound" strange for some reason which I can't quite understand. On the other hand, I don't "feel" anything wrong with the klingon ones. ~ Qa'yIn
